NSF CAREER Award Recipients

The Faculty Early Career Development Program is the National Science Foundation’s (NSF) most prestigious award program for young faculty members. The CAREER Award recognizes and supports the early career development activities of those teacher-scholars who are most likely to become the academic leaders of the 21st century.

CAREER Awards are given annually to some 400 young scientists and engineers in support of “early career faculty who have the potential to serve as academic role models in research and education and to lead advances in the mission of their department or organization.”
